Once delivered, the modules will be installed on-site, fitted out and commissioned, expected to be completed by June.

The new Alpha community hospital and associated staff accommodation will service about 400 residents and will employ locals, including concrete supplier Brown Dog concreting, which will provide the equivalent of more than 120 trucks of concrete to the project.

"The new facility will be clear of the local flood zone and will act as the emergency response centre for the whole Alpha region so as to ensure services are always available when they're needed most," he said.

Another central Queensland town is set to get a health facility makeover, with the announcement of a $3.5 million healthcare facility to replace the 100-year-old health care centre now servicing the remote town of Aramac, home to 700 people.

Work on the new healthcare facility will begin in the next few months and is expected to be finished by the end of 2016.

It will include three consultation rooms, a treatment room and resuscitation bay as well as storage and office space.

Former Aramac mayor Gary Peoples said the old facility had "some problems and maintenance issues" and he welcomed the Palaszczuk government for finally "coming to the party".

"We have been looking for a new hospital for some time," he said.

"It is still workable but the cost of maintenance was going to be fairly great and we are appreciative to the Palaszczuk government for coming to the party and providing a new hospital for the Aramac community."

Mr Peoples said hospitals in central west Queensland had "seen their used-by date" and called for the renewal of more healthcare facilities.

"I think hospitals in central west Queensland have seen their used by date and we have got Alpha and Aramac that have been lucky enough to be renewed and there is probably a couple more out there in the west that need to be renewed also," he said.

Minister for Health and Ambulance Services Cameron Dick said parts of central west Queensland were in the running for much-needed infrastructure upgrades.

"In the Central West, the Palaszczuk government already has commissioned the new $17.5 million Alpha Hospital and Co-located Emergency Services facility and is spending $8.2 million for major health infrastructure upgrades at Longreach and Barcaldine," he said.
